1 Chronicles 4:7-13 God's Word Translation (GW)

7. Helah’s sons were Zereth, Izohar, and Ethnan.

8. Koz was the father of Anub and Zobebah, and he was the ancestor of the families of Aharhel, son of Harum.

9. Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez [Painful], because she said that his birth was painful.

10. Jabez prayed to the God of Israel, “Please bless me and give me more territory. May your power be with me and free me from evil so that I will not be in pain.” God gave him what he prayed for.

11. Chelub, Shuhah’s brother, was the father of Mehir, who was the father of Eshton.

12. Eshton was the first to settle Beth Rapha. He was the father of Paseah and Tehinnah, who first settled the city of Nahash. These were the men from Recah.

13. Kenaz’s sons were Othniel and Seraiah. The sons of Othniel were Hathath and Meonothai.
